is "centos fonts hosed" a good enough reason to re-install linux, but this time a fedora? my idiot opinion is 'yes', and away i go

hells yeah. unlike centos, fedora correctly detected the windows 7 partition and configured grub right and didn't repeatedly and ironically crash on the "kdump" config screen. and these fonds, well these fonts are Nice.

it was probably 16 years ago that i installed my first linux. it took the better part of the weekend just to do the install, i had to figure out stuff like partition the drive by sectors. and then recompile the kernel to get the soundblaster to work. and then re-install linux again to fix the fuckup from doing a bad job compiling the kernel. then waiting a week to find a us robotics serial modem because nobody had written a drive for my win modem. and now here i am 16 years later, installed a linux real quick, and everything works. and the fonts look nice. lads, i think linux is ready for the laptop.

Suspicious Dish posted:i guess my question is why you trust the OS vendor to patch and update third-party software better than the software vendor. i have contracts with canonical and red hat. i'm not going to sign hundreds of other contracts with consultants to try and get that level of support from upstream authors additionally, i can rely on redhat to maintain a stable base for 10 years at a time. they'll backport security fixes without expecting me to upgrade to the newest versions of software

crazypenguin posted:we could have had this ages ago, and we probably still will get it... eventually. bundling is not real popular inside of a distribution because it flies in the face of their internal operations. there's a guy who handles libxml, and a guy who handles nokogiri, and the nokogiri guy doesn't want to worry about libxml versioning / security issues and vice versa. if you are an isv or an end user, sure, bundling is a halfway reasonable option. you're gonna want to keep a close eye on a whole lot of security mailing lists though. do a find on your virtualenv or bundler directories -- there's a lotta fuckin SOs in there.

anaconda is great but I'm not using any of the scientific stuff for this so I was hoping I could get away with a basic python 3 installation I think the takeaway from this is that yes, just doing stuff in python 2 is still the less problematic option in the year of 2015

so far the only way fedora is worse for working on this dumb poo poo i'm working on is that i can't figure out how to export my cisco vpn ssl cert in a way that openconnect can read. otherwise, boy oh boy is it needs suiting. wtf is up with `yum` being deprecated? i thought it was the thing people liked.

I used to be a big yum advocate a long time ago because I thought Debian users were retards but I was wrong. apt was and continues to be far superior

i thought the freebsd ports system was good. where you just have a huge hierarchy of make files and say "oh look another one of those games where you push around blocks to the right place, nice,. make && make install"

Barnyard Protein posted:i thought the freebsd ports system was good. where you just have a huge hierarchy of make files and say "oh look another one of those games where you push around blocks to the right place, nice,. make && make install" you can still do this except it's usually just one command now. mostly you can set it all to auto-update so it just seamlessly patches itself, works well

pacman shits on both deb+apt and rpm+dnf arch is really really ftw in a lot of ways, it would be nice if there was some sort of RHEL style long-term-supported snapshot derivative.

unfortunately it still uses the equivalent of maintaner scripts running as root in order to install/uninstall stuff instead of being declarative (loving MSI of all things gets this right). But the package format is very simple & nice and idk why deb is so stupid complex by comparison. other than that though, imagine apt and dpkg, except lightning fast. and instead of using apt-get for some thing, apt-cache for others, and dpkg for other poo poo you just use one command apt-cache search xterm apt-cache show xterm apt-get install xterm dpkg -s xterm dpkg -L xterm dpkg -S /usr/bin/xterm becomes pacman -Ss xterm pacman -Si xterm pacman -S xterm pacman -Qi xterm pacman -Ql xterm pacman -Qo /usr/bin/xterm
